This place was perfect for our family vacation! Walking to the beach was an absolute highlight, and we used the beach cart, 2 chairs, and towels the house generously provided. We had enough of everything to cook - and really appreciated the stash of spices and coffee filters. The neighborhood pool was heated during our week and that was awesome for the kids. We would absolutely stay here again. Communication was easy with the host!

This was a great house for a family vacation for six adults and a 3 yr old and a 1 yr old. It was more than big enough and was very well maintained and clean. It is very close to the beautiful pool and about a 10 minute walk from the beach. The owner is very kind and always responded quickly to messages.

Great stay!!!

We really enjoyed our stay at the property. The property was very clean and accommodating. Plenty of room for our group of 6 adults and 2 kids. The location was perfect being close to the beach and pool being less than a 5 minute walk from the unit. Shuttle service to the beach was very convenient and pick up was right in front of the house. Owner was responsive to any questions we had before arriving and during our stay. We definitely recommend this property.
